He mentioned lions and tigers. I was referring to that. I'm more than aware how big bobcats are.

I did mention lions and tigers in reference to them being badass cats but I think a bobcat could take down any dog, wolf, coyote, chupacabra, ect.

A bobcat is not remotely similar in weight to a wolf

A panther, tiger, or lion could kill most any animal on earth.Panthers are very cool.


Pound for pound I don't think there's any animal that could even handle a Cougar.

after a quick googling. you're right. false assumption on my end.


that being said, i'd still take the bobcat in a one on one situation.

The biggest that wolves get is around 80 pounds and that's huge for a wolf.

Don't try to poke kitty outside the trailer.

True.Panthers are the coolest of the cats imo mainly because of the things you mentioned.

This random quote I found on yahoo answers sums it up pretty well.

quote:

A solitary wolf would be NO match for a big strong male bobcat in his prime, even though the wolf might be twice or three times as large. When I was in high school in Dallas, TX many years ago, I had a friend with a semi-domesticated pet bobcat, and one day a huge German Shepherd saw it relaxing on the screened-in porch and ran right up and pushed through the screen door to attack that bobcat. The surprised bobcat awakened instantly and swung its paws so fast -- like some boxer -- that one couldn't see what it was doing, but in a split second it had taken the entire face off that huge ferocious German Shepherd, which collapsed on the ground with a pathetic loud yelp/scream, and bled to death in a few minutes. One on one, if the weights/sizes are even on the same general order of magnitude, DOGS are NO MATCH for CATS.
